Breaking through the layers of a dream their aspirations
Imitating reflections of the pills we call medications

Ejected, Evicted, Unprotected and Uninvited
Expectations unmet
In love that shone light
On hopes unfelt
Strode astride in flight

To Cupid’s abode
Where love smote
A heart that rode
A hurdle whose coat

Sought to suppress
An impression within an operation
Meant to address stress
Felt so keenly affection

Crept, wept and...

And ten weeks later 
You'd be gone
But your socks

You looked so bad when you left
Barefoot without a care,

You had sworn you'd tear
Before you'd leave again
All tattered...

Broken Madness of Mirrored Shards
Memories are like solar flares
unpredictable provocations 
springing to existence once more
of times that are long past
in the pond of nevermore

Premium Member American Revolution Reaffirmed
Our Revolution sought limitations
On imposition of regulations,
But supplications met deprecation
And castigations not reformation.

Such condescension sparked protestation
And contemplation of separation;
This supposition stirred apprehension -
A premonition of confrontation.

But, declamations and remonstrations
Spurred agitation toward Declaration,
While provocations and deprivations
Steeled...

Not your articulate speech
Nor your erect carriage
It's about our distinct sort...

Inanimate as I am
